Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

Part 3:
Calibration of reference blocks
1 Scope
This part of ISO 6506 specifies a method for the calibration of reference blocks to be used in the indirect
verification of Brinell hardness testing machines as described in ISO 6506-2.
The procedures necessary to ensure metrological traceability of the calibration machine are also
specified.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

testing machines

3 Manufacture of reference blocks
3.1 The block shall be specially manufactured for use as a reference block.
NOTE Attention is drawn to the need to use a manufacturing process which will give the necessary
homogeneity, stability of structure, and uniformity of surface hardness.
3.2 Each metal block to be calibrated shall be of a thickness not less than
— 16 mm for 10 mm balls, for HBW ≤ 150
— 12 mm for 10 mm balls, for HBW > 150
— 12 mm for 5 mm balls, or
— 6 mm for smaller balls.
3.3 The reference blocks shall be free of magnetism. It is recommended that the manufacturer shall
ensure that the blocks, if of steel, have been demagnetized at the end of the manufacturing process.
ISO/DIS 6506-3:2023(E)
3.4 The flatness of the two surfaces and the parallelism of the reference block shall be in accordance
with Table 1.

Sampling length: l = 0,80 mm (see ISO 4287).
3.5 The test surface shall be free from scratches which interfere with the measurement of the
indentations (see Table 1).
3.6 To verify that no material is subsequently removed from the reference block, the thickness at the
time of calibration shall be marked on it to the nearest 0,1 mm, or an identifying mark shall be made on
the test surface [see 8.1, item e)].
4 Calibration machine
4.1 In addition to fulfilling the general requirements specified in ISO 6506-2:2014, Clause 3, the
calibration machine shall also meet the requirements given in 4.2 to 4.7.
4.2 The machine shall be verified directly in intervals not exceeding 12 months.
Direct verification involves
a) measurement of the test forces,
b) measurement of the diameter, hardness, and density of the indenter ball,
c) calibration of the indentation diameter measuring device, and
d) measurement of the testing cycle, if this is not possible, at least the force versus time behaviour.
4.3 The instruments used for verification and calibration shall be traceable to the SI.
4.4 Each test force shall be measured a minimum of three times using an elastic proving device of
ISO 376 class 0,5 or better. For machines that apply the force by hydraulic or weight systems, these force
measurements shall be made at each of three different indenter positions uniformly spaced throughout
its range of movement during machine operation. The mean measurement (at each indenter position,
where applicable) shall agree with the nominal value to within ±0,1 %.
4.5 The indenters shall be measured as specified in ISO 6506-2:2014, 4.3, and shall meet the size,
hardness, and density requirements given there.
ISO/DIS 6506-3:2023(E)
4.6 The scale of the indentation diameter measuring system shall be graduated to read to 0,002 mm
for indentations made with 10 mm and 5 mm balls, and 0,001 mm for indentations made with balls of
less than 5 mm diameter.
The indentation diameter measuring system shall be calibrated against a standard scale at a minimum
of five intervals over each working range. The performance of the indentation diameter measuring
system (defined as the sum of the measured deviation from the standard scale and the expanded
uncertainty of the standard scale) in relation to the diameters of indentation shall be as given in Table 2.
Note The numerical aperture of the lens may also influence the optical measurement of the indentation.
Table 2 — Performance of the indentation diameter measuring device
Diameter of indentation Performance
mm mm
d < 1 ±0,000 5
1 ≤ d < 2,5 ±0,001 0
d ≥ 2,5 ±0,002 0
4.7 The testing cycle shall conform to the testing cycle described in ISO 6506-1 and shall be timed
with an uncertainty less than ±0,5 s.
5 Calibration procedure
The reference blocks shall be calibrated in a calibration machine as described in Clause 4, at a
temperature of (23 ± 5) °C, using the general procedure described in ISO 6506-1. During calibration, the
thermal drift should not exceed 1 °C.
The maximum velocity of the indenter immediately before it touches the surface of the test block shall
be as specified in Table 3.
